A free 5-day email challenge for women 25+ who want to train with a kettlebell but aren't sure where to start. Pick the right weight, learn the hip hinge, the deadlift and the two-hand swing, add three more key moves and finish with your first 20-minute session and a simple weekly plan. One kettlebell, no supplements, no toning promises.
One short email a day, one step at a time.
About an hour of reading and practice across the week, and you finish with the right bell, a hinge you can trust, a safe swing, six key moves, a 20-minute session and a 6-week plan.
The order I use with clients: choose the right bell, own the hinge, learn the swing, round out the moves, then build a plan you can keep.
What weight to start with (and why too light holds you back), a quick safety check and the broomstick hip-hinge test.
◷ 10 minWhere the bell goes, how to grip and brace, and the kettlebell deadlift step by step with common fixes.
◷ 15 minHinge, not squat. Hips drive, arms float. The swing step by step, plus a deadlift fallback for any day it feels off.
◷ 15 minGoblet squat, one-arm row and a halo or suitcase carry, then a complete 20-minute session.
◷ 25 min2 to 3 sessions a week, how to build over 4 to 6 weeks and when to move up a bell size.
◷ 5 minMade for women 25+ who are new to kettlebells, coming back after a break or own a bell that has been gathering dust. It is everyday fitness coaching, not treatment for any medical condition. If you have a recent back, shoulder or wrist injury or surgery, osteoporosis, a joint replacement, a hernia, high blood pressure or a heart condition, or are pregnant or postpartum, get your care team's OK first.

I am a NASM-certified personal trainer with CES and PES credentials, a NESTA nutrition coach and a former collegiate track athlete, with 20+ years in health and fitness. A single kettlebell is one of the best home tools I know, but technique matters. I have watched plenty of people squat their swings and feel it in their lower back.
These five days teach the hinge first, so the swing feels strong and safe.
